A fence is a nice big visible thing for a politician to point to and say look, we did something. It doesnt do anything about people already here illegally or who continue to come on tourist or student visas and overstay illegally. Or even those who bring a ladder or a rope with a grappling hook to climb over if the Dems sneak through a cut in the Border Patrol's budget for guarding the fence or even if an Obama appointee tells them to stop aggressive patrols.
The fence only works when guarded.

If this ammendment was based off of refunding the Security Fence Act, then it came with border patrols and sensors. I just don’t know what the amendment read though.
